VCU visit

We drove to Richmond this weekend to visit Virginia Commonwealth this weekend. Here Zachary is during lunch in the cafeteria.
We had a very full day hearing about the school, taking a tour, visiting with the Communications Arts department, looking through art classrooms and eating in the dining hall.
We then went exploring around the Carytown, Fan and Shockoe districts and had some yummy sushi for dinner.
It was a long, but fun weekend!
Zachary likes it a lot, too!

VCU

We are on our way to Richmond Va to go to a College open house tomorrow.

Snow Day

Ok, the snow came today. No snow day from school because the snow did not come in until after lunch, but baby boy already had the day off for winter break and baby girl got to play outside in the snow at school.

They are both at friends  tonight and hubby and I are having a quiet night watching the olympics.

Baby boy actually drove home and then off again in the snow, which we let him do because he has his nice all wheel drive Subaru station wagon to drive around in. He did not slide out of our steep drive way like I did an hour before him. We did tell him he cannot drive again tonight or tomorrow until we see what things are like tomorrow so he will be sleeping away tonight.

We miss them when they are gone, but have to get used to it because baby boy will go away to college in just 6 more months. AGH!

Life took over

OK, so I have not blogged in forever because I was trying
to work on the shop blog during a whole Dolly Dresses
blogging event that Taffy got me involved in when
we were at market in October.

We had a very busy fall season at the shop which is unsusal for us. It is ususally slow in the fall and busier in the winter. We'll see what these next few months are like.

I also had a very busy personal life this past fall helping my baby boy work on his college applications and get his portfolio together for them. He filled out five applications and has received two acceptances so far. Yeah!!!

Now next weekend we will drive up to Richmond, Virginia to visit one of the colleges, Virginia Commonwealth. Richmond supposedly just had 11 inches of snow this past weekend, is expecting a little more on Wednesday and then it is supposed to snow Saturday and Sunday. We might be crazy to go but, you know....

I'll let you know how it goes.
